Qin Mu's heart thumped wildly, and he pulled out his Pig Slaughtering Knife from his back. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Mu Beifeng's aura pressured him invisibly.
Ever since this old man entered the village, his every action, every word, and every action gave off boundless pressure.
When he fought with Senior Brother Qu of Li River's Five Scions, he was forced to the extreme and had no choice but to take action. Now, the situation in front of him made him feel apprehensive.
"I've peed on the stone statue at the entrance of the village, so what's there to be afraid of? I've seen Woman Wu and the devil of Doom Suppression Palace. I wasn't afraid then, so why should I be afraid now? No matter how strong Mu Beifeng is, he can't be stronger than a god or a devil! "
Qin Mu composed himself, and his flustered emotions gradually calmed down. He looked around and frowned slightly. The village wasn't big, and there were twenty-two people including him standing there. They were like wooden stakes, and everyone was standing in different positions. Their bodies were scattered all over the place, filling up the entire village.
Village Chief was lying on a stretcher, and Apothecary was standing beside it. Butcher, who only had his upper body, was standing on a wooden stake. Old Ma was leaning against a wooden stake, Madam Si was carrying a basket, Mute was standing at the entrance of the blacksmith's shop, Deaf was holding a brush that was still dripping ink, and Cripple was standing on one leg with a walking stick.
The positions of the people that Mu Beifeng had brought were also very particular. Everyone's positions were very strange, making it difficult for them to move quickly in the village, let alone fight.
In this kind of situation, there was an extremely high requirement for using qi to manipulate swords!
If one used qi to manipulate swords, they had to be careful to avoid touching other people and being affected by them. This required their swordsmanship to be incomparably delicate. Qin Mu cultivated the Butcher's Pig Slaughtering Knife Skills, and the knife skills of the battle technique school couldn't achieve this.
"Shall we fight here?" Qin Mu asked.
Qian Qiu nodded. "Yes!"
Qin Mu sheathed his Pig Slaughtering Knife back into the knife sheath on his back, emptying his hands.
Seeing Qin Mu sheathing his Pig Slaughtering Knife, Chiaki's eyes flashed. It was out of his expectations that Qin Mu would rather go empty-handed.
Before coming here, Mu Beifeng had already brought them to check out the remains of the canyon. From Senior Brother Qu's corpse that had been gnawed until only his bones were left, Mu Beifeng deduced that Qin Mu had used a blade technique.
At that time, Qin Mu had picked up a wooden stick from the ground and used it as a knife to hit Senior Brother Qu, leaving small marks on his bones. The places where the marks were left had fine cracks on the bones.
From this, it could be deduced that Qin Mu's saber skills were exquisite. Furthermore, Qin Mu's footwork was also very fast. Only a person with exquisite leg skills would be able to continuously move and attack every corner of Senior Brother Qu's body!
Mu Beifeng's ability was outstanding and he was a top expert in the world. Judging from the traces left behind by Qin Mu, Qin Mu must have used a battle technique.
Battle techniques were good at close combat, but they didn't have much attainments or achievements in using qi to manipulate swords.
From then on, Mu Beifeng had decided on a way to kill Qin Mu. After they had entered the village, everyone stood in different positions and laid down Li River Waterdragon Formation. They purposely left nine formation eyes and Mu Beifeng stood at the dragon head position.
Other than Chiaki, the rest of the people were the top experts of Li River Sect. In order to prevent Li River Waterdragon Formation from unleashing its combined power, the villagers of Disabled Elderly Village had to block the formation eyes one by one. Village Chief and Apothecary blocked the dragon eye, Blind blocked the heart eye, Cripple, Madam Si, Old Ma, and Butcher stood at the joints of the four limbs of the formation, Blacksmith suppressed the dragon's body, and Deaf suppressed the dragon's tail.
That would create a situation like the current situation in the village. Everyone was standing in different positions, and their figures were scattered, making it difficult for people to move quickly. It was difficult for people to use Qi to control swords, unless they had extremely high attainments in using Qi to control swords.
Obviously, Qin Mu wasn't such a person.
And his disciple Chiaki was such a person.
Even though he was still a martial arts practitioner of Spirit Embryo Realm, his attainments in using qi to manipulate swords were extremely high. His vital qi thread was refined to be incomparably fine and his sword manipulation technique had reached astonishing attainments. He had once used his vital qi to control his brush and draw a picture of a court lady from three hundred yards away. The hair on the picture of the court lady was distinct and not a single strand out of place.
As long as Qin Mu used his knife to fight, he would definitely lose.
However, Qin Mu had sheathed his knife and fought bare-handed, which was out of Chiaki's expectations. However, no matter how one looked at it, he would be at a disadvantage if he fought bare-handed against a treasure sword. Furthermore, the sword he had brought this time wasn't a normal sword but a spirit sword. It was a sword that was nurtured in the divine treasure of a divine arts practitioner of Six Directions Realm.
No matter if it was sharpness, toughness, strength, or spirituality, a spirit sword far surpassed normal weapons.
Qin Mu bowed, "Senior brother, please."
Chiaki returned the greeting and the treasure sword on his back hummed, "Junior brother, please."
Qin Mu raised his foot and at this moment, the treasure sword on Chiaki's back came out of its sheath. His vital qi thread controlled the treasure sword and the cold air was oppressive. Sword light flashed as it stabbed towards Qin Mu!
That vital qi thread was incomparably fine and couldn't be seen clearly with the naked eye. With a gentle tremble, the treasure sword stabbed out flowers and stabbed towards Qin Mu from all kinds of tricky angles. The speed was so fast that it dazzled people's eyes!
As a martial arts practitioner, being able to use qi to manipulate swords to such a standard was already a rare and commendable achievement!
Qin Mu's footwork was incomparably nimble as he shuttled between the people who were standing still. Meanwhile, the speed of Chiaki's sword was even faster and the finesse of his sword skill made people speechless. To the other people who were standing still, his sword didn't pose any threat but to Qin Mu, every move of his sword was life-threatening!
That sword light was impossible to guard against and even if Qin Mu executed Cripple's Heaven Pilfering Leg Skill, he still wouldn't be able to escape. There were simply too many obstacles here and every person who was standing still restricted his speed. It was impossible for him to unleash his full speed!
